    Being helpful? It'll take you a while to catch up with Valli though :cool:


    Helpful? Nah, not me. Got the wrong person there.



    Bit of a while catching up with Valli of the Hundred-Odd Thousand Thanks, and you, Little Miss Greenbillion Thanks.


    :D

    Morning All

    I have toothache - it's a tooth I broke which is being filled on Monday so I hope there isn't an infection in it - I broke it at the start of last month. Just had some parrots and wondering whether to go back to bed for an hour or whether I'd feel worse then.

    SW this morning then for a smear then I need to sort at least the downstairs out ready for my meeting. I also need to pull the settee in out of the conservatory I think so I've got enough seats in the LR so I'll get the kids to help me with that.

    Have a good day all

    Hugs

    Jue

    I'm up again - a lot later than usual but hey.

    Going to do some ironing - not sure it'll be a full HHI as I haven't got a lot of time but we'll see.

    Morning all

    I have de plumbed the washing machine, my new one arrives today anywhere between 8am to 6pm, so have brought some work home to do, and going to crack some of the lists today, already dusted the lounge, and swept the kitchen floor.

    It will be the first time in my life I will have a brand new washing machine!!!

    Hugs all round xx

  • Morning all!

    DS ended up in the maxillo-facial clinic with a 4.00pm appt. He was seen about 5.30. They rang up on Sunday and said he didn't need a scan - now they want him to have one - his eye is a bit too deep in the socket and they think his orbit may be broken.

    They will post scan details....

    BUT

    They have told him not to blow his nose for a month or he may go blind in that eye!

    Belated Happy Birthday to Valli.

    Better get on with some stuff - we are in chaos and the last 2 days (since DS got punched) have been ineffective on the h/w front!

    Kazw - I did wonder why you'd put your toaster, microwave and bin outside but I got there in the end.

    HHI done

    Kids still not ready

    Catch you all later
